Berry scone shortcakes
Cakes
I substitute my family recipe for scone dough for traditional shortcake batter for a sweeter, more tender shortcake. The lemon sugar topping is a crunchy contrast to the soft cream and berries. Early in the summer I make it with strawberries alone and replace them with a combination of blueberries, raspberries and blackberries as they come into season. Using red and blue berries makes it a very appropriate July 4 treat. The recipe for scones was given to my by my Auntie Anna Brosnan Downes, from Castle Island, Co. Kerry, Ireland.
